The Lionel Santa Fe FA No. 204 was only available in 1957 and was painted Santa Fe Freight colors.

Produced on a BLUE body with YELLOW cab and upper stripe, and RED and YELLOW lower stripes and lettering, this diesel was the only one of the late Alco units to have a light in the dummy unit. There was no horn in the power unit that was equipped with a single vertical worm drive Type IIE motor that powered two axles and utilized Magnetraction. This engine had a three position directional unit whose control lever was adjustable from the top of the body. Both units have a sheet metal chassis that are equipped with solid non-operating couplers. There are no variations.
